Excellent day trip to see Tikal ruins - Excellent trip to see the Mayan ruins. The guide was excellent, explaining all the different ruins history. We climbed several ruins and although we walked a lot, we had a few rest breaks. It was a good balance. Saw howler monkeys, spider monkeys and anteaters.

Exciting and eventful tour to Tikal - My partner and I took part in the tour to Tikal and had a lovely day! We left Flores at 8 in the morning because we didn't want it as stressful as the Sunrise tours, and were picked up near our hotel (this would not have been necessary in the end, Flores Island is so small that you can easily walk to the parking lot where the actual shuttle starts). It was all on time, the tickets had already been bought by the organizer, and after about 90 min drive we could start the tour in Tikal. Elvin was friendly, entertaining and obviously enjoyed the tour, it was a good and exciting experience! Due to the heat and humidity you are actually well exhausted after 3-4 hours of guidance, even if there would be much more to see. There was also time in between to look around what was important to us to really enjoy the surroundings. Lunch at the end was okay, nothing out of the ordinary, but perfectly fine. You could choose between chicken and beef, but on request I got a vegetarian option with rice, vegetables, egg and cheese. After the meal there was 45 minutes until the bus went back, that would not have been necessary, but maybe they planned a buffer. For the price the tour is absolutely recommended, we had a good time and learned a lot!

What an excellent trip! - Our tour had a great time. Our guide Jose was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. He took us to the best spots and gave us great photographs ideas. Our guide was very polite and gave us excellent pointers along the way and prior to the start of the tour. We all had a great time.

Unforgettable trip! - It was such a nice experience. We were picked up at our hotel, brought to the main bus. Luis, the guide, was amazing. He was smart funny and witty! We learned so much and the group we were with was pretty fun as well. The lunch was super tasty.

Great guide, awesome site. - I imagine every tour they take is unique. Ours was filled with a lot of wildlife. The guide was very informative and had really good energy. Be prepared for a lot of walking and a lot of stair climbing. Weather was clear but extremely humid. I felt the guide gave enough time to explore. I really enjoyed the whole experience and got back exhausted.

The tour went well.... - The ride went well. The shuttle ride and visit to the Tikal site, very good. On the other hand, out of 15 people, 4 wanted the information in English. We had them, but maybe 40% of the time. It was much more in Spanish. Otherwise, everything was fine.

The tour guide was not very engaging - The visit itself is fun to see the pyramids and many wild animals too. However, the guide was not very communicative that at the beginning of the tour he only spoke in Spanish to ask everyone to preorder food and I had no clue what he was saying, when I asked him what's everyone doing, he just asked me to stay put. Later I asked him about it, he said he will fix it, but he didn't. He was nowhere to be found (we were once lost on our way back too). Otherwise the pickup and dropoff at the airport are smooth.
